Hello Angels!

June roses are in bloom everywhere in my yard and reminds me how much I've missed pruning, gathering, and filling up vases around the house. I even spotted a few berries the birds left me for my morning cereal. Very sweet!

Have you received your copy of the July issue of Romantic Homes yet? My column, SAY AHH, features the quaint Gingerbread cottages in Martha's Vineyard. Aren't they charming?

Next month,the August issue in my column, my backyard lit for a romantic evening under the summer skies. Be sure and pick up a copy!

Cuteness watch! My little Jessy, looking adorable. He will be 11 this month.. Doesn't he look fabulous for his age?

NEW on my website, this stunning Christie Repasy canvas print in an antique tin frame. Check it out in Vintage Finds!

Lastly I will leave you with this magnificent photo of the movie, Under The Tuscan Sun with Diane Lane, who is superb in this! I will be watching this weekend-One of my all time favorites! Have you seen it? You will fall in love...

Jo-Anne, I just wanted you to know how beautiful your rose paintings are that have the snow fluttering around them. It reminds me of an old Sonny James song "When the snow is on the roses." I received your painting instruction book and I am so impressed with it. You are an amazing artist in more than one way. Thanks for sharing all of you pretties. Have a LOVERLY day! Joanne
